    Traveling with guests?
    Due to space constraints, unfortunately we are unable to accommodate guests in attending event sessions. We prioritize the class observation and other event sessions for a select number of admitted students.

    However, guests are welcome to join you on the Brandeis campus and the Heller School. The Heller/Schneider building contains a cafe and large atrium downstairs with plenty of seating. Guests may also wish to visit the on-campus Rose Art Museum. Please contact us with questions or to request additional suggestions.

    Directions and Parking
    When you arrive at the main entrance to the Heller School, you will see the Welcome/Admissions area on your right. Directly ahead will be the Zinner Forum. Please make your way to admissions and a member of our team will greet you and show you to your first appointment.

    The Heller School is located at the highest point of the Brandeis University campus along the Loop Road, across from the Mandel Center for the Humanities. Brandeis also publishes an electronic campus map. If you require an accessible option, please contact Heller Admissions directly to assist you. 

    Parking
    Stop at the Security Gatehouse at the Brandeis University main entrance to campus, to request a visitor's parking pass and directions. The guest parking pass permits you to park anywhere the blue permit parking is allowed (Kutz Lot, Library Lot, Schneider Lot, Castle Lot, North Lot) except for the Tower Lot.

    Public Transportation
    Please use www.mbta.com to plan your trip on public transportation. There is a "trip planner" function right on the first page of the site that is very helpful. 

    MBTA Commuter Rail: The Brandeis / Roberts stop (Fitchburg Commuter Rail Line) is adjacent to the Brandeis campus, and approximately a 15-minute walk (0.7 miles) to The Heller School.

    MBTA Bus: Take the "Roberts" bound 553 bus stop to "South Street at Brandeis University" stop - walk back along South Street to access stairs to Loop Road. It is approximately a 10-minute walk (0.5 miles) from the bus stop to The Heller School.
